Dear Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister,

Inclusive Communities

Disability Rights UK has published new materials on making local communities inclusive

Today’s local communities are strongest when they enable all, diverse citizens to participate socially, economically and politically. These inclusive communities have better health, improved economic development, stronger political institutions and more effective public services. One in 5 of us is living with a health condition or disability. Economic recovery and social well-being cannot happen without inclusion.
